Abstract

This paper investigated CO2 utilization into energy density chemical using NiFe2O4@Alumina support porous-medium filled reactor heated by high-flux solar simulator. A combination of numerical and experimental studies is developed to investigate the synthesis and characterization of the redox materials, thermal characteristics, redox reaction kinetics, and redox performance of NiFe2O4@Alumina support porous oxide material. Moreover, thermal and chemical energy conversion efficiency of NiFe2O4@Alumina support was analyzed. Considering the difficulty related to designing and manufacturing porous-medium filled solar thermal receiver, this study could provide tremendous innovation values and pattern impacts in the field of solar thermochemical (STC) energy conversion into fuels and chemicals.
